The Best Venue out there!

Look no further than The Booking House. The Booking House was the very first wedding venue we toured and I fell in love instantly. The venue speaks for itself; there is so much character and is such a beautiful venue. Look no further than The Booking House.

The staff are incredible! Brittany is amazing- her communication from the very beginning was prompt and professional, she’s so friendly and I don’t think I ever saw her without a smile on her face.

We booked both the day of coordination and in house bartending services and everything was amazing. Emilie was fantastic to work with to help us curate the perfect bar menu for our wedding day and is able to assist with recommendations.
Aalea was our day of coordinator and I there are no words for how amazing she is. Whenever someone would ask me about how the wedding was the only thing I could say was “absolutely perfect” and that’s no exaggeration. Aalea and the entire Booking House team were able to fulfill my wedding vision dreams and the entire day went off without a single hiccup ( or at least none that I was ever aware of.)

It was truly the most perfect day, with the best team at THE BEST venue.

If you are considering The Booking House, this is your sign!

To say that we loved our experience working with The Booking House would be an understatement. From our very first communication with Brittany to every single staff member we worked with throughout the planning process and on our wedding day, the experience was truly incredible.

We planned our wedding in just seven months, so the process was fast-paced and at times chaotic, but the team at The Booking House made us feel completely supported every step of the way. Their organization, responsiveness, and genuine care helped turn what could have been a stressful timeline into a smooth and enjoyable experience. They truly helped make our day even more beautiful, stressfree and perfect than we ever dreamed.

The attention to detail, unwavering support, and sincere warmth of the staff far exceeded our expectations. A special shoutout to our coordinator Aalea, who helped bring my vintage design to life and who is one of the brightest lights, we feel so fortunate to have had her as part of our day! The venue itself is absolutely stunning, even more breathtaking in person than photos can capture. Every space felt thoughtfully designed and impeccably maintained. The Crow’s Nest (Groomsmen Suite/Cigar Lounge) was a HUGE hit with our guests and added such a fun, unique element to the day.

Everyone says their wedding day is the most magical day of their life simply because they’re marrying the love of their life, but we know that a huge part of the magic of our day was thanks to the hardworking, kind, and incredible staff at The Booking House. We are endlessly grateful and couldn’t imagine having chosen a better venue.

Beautiful Venue, World-Class Customer Service

We had an incredible experience getting married at The Booking House. The BH team was incredible! Especially Aalea Ray, our Day of Coordinator. Aalea was on it throughout the entire process. She was organized, prepared, and easy to work with. It was such a relief on wedding day knowing that Aalea was taking care of everything & handling the vendors. She also made sure I had a drink in my hand the entire night! We cannot thank Aalea enough for her help & professionalism.

The Booking House venue is gorgeous. It had the rustic, industrial vibe that we were looking for. The groomsmen suite is amazing, and the entire property has so much space. We could not be happier with our experience with The Booking House.

The Booking House was fantastic!

The Booking House was phenomenal to work with from beginning to end! They were so helpful and communicative with everything leading up to our wedding and made the planning process seamless. And on the day of, everything went so well in large part due to The Booking House, its day-of coordinating and all of its staff. They're organized, hard-working and so helpful. Everyone was fantastic, and we'd highly recommend!

Absolutely Beautiful Venue

From the moment my wife and I set foot into The Booking House, we were truly captivated and knew it would be the venue we’d get married in! We wanted an industrial space for our big day, and The Booking House really exceeded our expectations. Its inherent charm, and the surrounding areas that provided several photograph opportunities, created an atmosphere that we fell in love with instantly. Our guests were all in awe of the stunning ceremony and reception space! From the very beginning, The Booking House staff were all so gracious and inviting. Our coordinator, Aalea, was an absolute delight to work with! She was on top of every detail, ensuring that everything was just as we had envisioned. Her responsive communication and dedication made the entire planning process stress-free, and we were confident to have our day in her hands. The Booking House truly has an exceptional team, and they also recommended vendors who worked so seamlessly together to make our day perfect. Even though we live in NYC, a piece of our heart will always be in Manheim. Thank you for bringing our wedding vision to life, and for making our day so special, magical, and memorable!

Our wedding was a literal dream come true

My NYC-based family thought I was a little crazy when I told them we were getting married out in PA, but boy were they wow’d by the beauty of The Booking House. Words cannot express just how wonderful this venue is. From start-to-finish, we were/are absolutely over-the-moon about how our wedding day unfolded.

First, everyone on The Booking House team is so kind and thoughtful. Brittany (sales director) was our first point-of-contact and was more than happy to answer my first set of 101 questions. J.P. (owner) warmly greeted us at 8 AM on a Sunday (with some champagne) and gave us a comprehensive tour of the space where he answered my next set of 101 questions. And the coordination team — Aalea, Autumn, and Emilie — were all amazing sounding boards over 18 months of very tedious planning. This entire team was always quick to respond and share recommendations — they kept a very Type A, out-of-state bride from feeling overwhelmed.

Second, you can make this space 100% your own — it is truly a blank canvas. Every wedding at The Booking House is unique — definitely take a peek at their Instagram. Our wedding truly felt like OUR WEDDING versus some cookie-cutter event. I think we changed our vision 2 - 3 times before finally settling on the right style and it was actually… perfect. Every space/room looked even more beautiful than I could have possibly imagined.

Third, opting into The Booking House coordinator add-on was the best investment we made. Aalea was an absolute rockstar early on, and Autumn was my source of calm from 3 months out until when we left the venue at 11 PM that night. She kept us on track along the way and made what could have been a very stressful 24 hours very not stressful. Even our parents and wedding party were so impressed with how on-top-of-things Autumn was — from the rehearsal, to the morning of, through the ceremony and reception. She managed the arrival of all our vendors and oversaw the execution of the entire venue experience while we were spending time with our loved ones. There were at least 3x on our wedding day where I told Autumn that I was just so grateful to have her there. If you choose to have your wedding at The Booking House, please make sure to hire their in-house coordinator so you can actually enjoy your big day.

Our wedding was a literal dream come true. We had several guests tell us at and after our wedding that, “this was the best wedding I’ve ever been to.” I highly recommend this venue to couples who are not looking for a “same old, same old” catering hall, country club, or farm/barn wedding. If you’re looking for a magical, memorable, one-of-a-kind wedding, look no further.

Book Your Wedding Here!!

I cannot say enough good things about the venue (which is stunning) and the incredible team (thank you all!!) they have at the Booking House! Aalea gave us our initial tour and hiring her as our day of coordinator was the best decision! She was so responsive in answering all of our questions, always thinking two steps ahead and was an absolute rockstar the day of. I didn't worry about one thing on our wedding day. Aalea and the rest of the Booking House team made our cozy winter wedding vision come to life! Our guests are still raving about how beautiful the space was and how flawlessly the night went. HIGHLY recommend booking your wedding here!!

The most amazing venue!!

The Booking House was the first, and only, venue that my husband and I looked at after getting engaged. As soon as we stepped inside, we knew that was where we were getting married. From the very start they were incredibly helpful. We were given a packet of information and a list of their recommended vendors. This list led us to choosing every single vendor that made our wedding day the best day of our lives. The wedding day itself went on without a hitch. We are so incredibly grateful that we decided to use their day-of-coordinator, Aalea. She is an absolute BOSS who made sure every single detail was perfect. And more than that, she gave us peace of mind because we knew that she had everything handled and we could just spend the day enjoying everything we had worked so hard for. The Booking House staff were incredibly kind, helpful and efficient. Our room was flipped like a well-oiled machine after the ceremony to accommodate dinner and our reception and their bartending staff are top tier. We could not be more thankful for everything they all did to make it a night we will never forget.

The PERFECT Wedding Venue

5 stars is not enough for this beautiful wedding venue! When looking for a wedding venue, my husband and I wanted a place in between our families (in the middle of Pittsburgh and NJ). After a few quick google searches we were in love with The Booking House. When we went to visit we knew right away that this was the place we needed to get married. It has such a magical energy and the ‘cool’ right vibe that we wanted. All of the staff at The Booking House was absolutely incredible. They walked us through everything that we needed to know and do months prior to the wedding. Then when it came to wedding day, we had full trust in them. They made sure our day was absolutely PERFECT. Every detail was portrayed and they went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and that our special day was everything and more! Special thank you to our day of coordinators- Aalea, Emilie, and Brittany. They were SO fantastic and made sure there was not 1 flaw in our wedding day. I will recommend the The Booking House a million times over.

Beyond Amazing Staff

I must say we originally were committed to a outside wedding, yet when we walked into The Booking House we instantly fell in love with the warmth, of the building and staff. They were instantly extremely friendly.
They were beyond exceptional every step of the way from the day we booked our wedding. We give special thanks to our wedding coordinator Aalea who was beyond amazing. We believed that this was her time to shine so we gave her our vision of our day and after that gave her reigns to handle anything in whatever manner she felt was appropriate and she definitely shinned!!!! Every step she was attentive, responsive, and attentive yet made you feel like your best friend had your back. With out her and the rest of the staff we would of been spinning at all the details that she and the rest of staff handled.
We can't express how much you were all appreciated in everything you did! Thank you for making our dream a reality and our wedding day exceed anything we could of every imagined!
Annie and Kelly

I've had the opportunity to work with The Booking House on a few different occasions over the past year, and I'm so glad. Not only is the venue gorgeous, but I love how the historic integrity was not only kept intact, but embraced and shines brightly in every facet of its design. It doesn't hurt that the members of their staff are so friendly and accommodating and work hard for their clients to ensure the perfect day. I look forward to returning here.

Bring On The Bash Bring On The Bash Wedding DJs

The Booking House is one of my favorite venues and one that I've had the privilege of DJ'ing at many times. First off the building is beautiful and it's design is from a time long past. You don't walk into many buildings and see wooden beams like these! They're huge! Second, the staff is incredible. Professional and flexible. They know what they are doing and easily adjust when something unexpected occurs. Third, when looking for a venue, you want one that can be a blank canvas so you can express your own style. But you don't want a venue that is so bland there isn't any character. The Booking House rests right in that perfect medium.And lastly, as a DJ, they have a variety of locations for the dance floor, which I'm alway a fan of. If you are considering The Booking House and they have your date available, book them now!
